Member Testimonials
The decor and set up of this Y is one of the best in Durham… this location is always crowded. I appreciate the new diagrams telling members the times when the Y is less busy.
Very nice facility. Friendly Staff
New, clean, great equipment and staff
It's always clean. There's a lap pool in the sunshine. The locker rooms are ample. There is enough staff to keep the pool open all the time. There is always a smiling face at the front desk.
I really enjoy NW Y but don’t visit as much since it is further away. One recommendation I have is switching out the mats to be more adhesive (similar to the ones downstairs Taylor Y) I think the current ones slip too easily on the wood floor and could cause an injury
My favorite part is all the wonderful group exercise classes and phenomenal instructors; in particular the Zumba classes are top notch.
Friendly staff, clean and bright, great variety of fitness classes!
Reservation system for pool lanes. Friendly staff
Friendly, helpful, upbeat staff. Lots of natural light. Nice exercise equipment that's always clean and maintained. I haven't had time to take many classes but the ones I've taken have been great and there's a nice assortment.
Love my Y!
Staff very friendly and helpful. Great class!
Friendly staff.
Great facility. Great staff.
I love coming to the Y! The classes are fantastic, and the instructors are top notch. I love the diversity of the classes offered. I also have to give a shout out to the front desk staff. I am always greeted with a smile, and it feels like I am really part of a community. Thank you!
Janine, Keri, and Anya are great instructors. I enjoy going to Lean & Cut, Cycle, and Yoga Flow. All of the staff are friendly and the equipment is in good condition.
yes!
Beautiful open views and plenty of places to do floor work without feeling like you are in the way of someone else.
The staff is professional and the facilities are good.
Friendly personnel at front desk. I like the facility. Swimming outdoors before the regular pool season is delightful!
I would like the Y to consider adding some "lips" on the lap swim pool steps to facilitate getting in and out of the pool for us older swimmers. Having the steps flush with the wall make the access very difficult.
Thanks!

It’s spacious and the open design. It has my favorite machines. It’s clean and organized well. Staff is very courteous and helpful
The facilities and group classes at the Northwest Cary Y are great, but the best part about a triangle YMCA membership is the ability to go to any Y in the area. We frequently go to Kraft, Taylor, and Northwest Cary as they are all within 15min from our house and it allows us the freedom to choose the group fitness classes that fit our schedule the best based on what's going on during the week.
All the equipment upstairs.
Lots of group classes available.
Friendly staff and class teachers.
Nice locker rooms and shower areas with well maintained sauna and steam rooms.
Great workout area and indoors track.
Excellent
I adore the facility, the wide range of equipment and sports activities it offers, and most importantly, its wonderful staff!

Clean place, well maintained , friendly staff, trainers are great. Feels like family! Thanks for the great team that runs this YMCA! Best one I ever ever been a member of!
Very good experience with the staffs and the facility

Love the setup of the equipment, the cleanliness and the general open airy feel. I appreciate all the natural light. Makes workouts much more enjoyable! Wish the Taylor Y would get a building update to make it more similar to this one!
